Thanks everyone for your input..Airborne!

Got decision but in letter it was kinda confusing. I went from 60% to 80% effective date last year..does anyone know if there will be back pay? And if or when that would be from the day I recieved award letter? Thanks to anyone that might know.. The letter did not give much info other than what they decided..no details..

Anyone know what a 60%combined current rating and an possible undecided awarded 10% or 30% would be? I understand addition but the rating tables seemed confsing to me? Thanks for any help.

Yep..I filed a claim..your probably right, stresser might be holding thing up. Just thought I would hear something by now. Ill call the iris # soon.. Thanks

My claim has been in for over 10 months, was wondering time from of others with similar claims. I have not heard a word. VA Pyhc Dr dianosed me with ptsd from in-service stressers during visits . Does anyone know if they can make a decision from this or have to have C and P exam? Thanks for any input.

Hello, my father had an Agent Orange claim in the works but recently died before decision of believed complication from this. My question is this, If decided will any compensation go to children or would it go to the authority on a will such as the executor to decide or how will this be done. Thanks if anyone knows?

Thanks pigdriver, its been a long road. God bless.

Hello testvet, thought you might know alittle of whats next? I went to a va psyche this week, according to them at the end of our session they told me I meet the criteria for ptsd, anxiety, depression from service and possible childhood trauma. I filed a claim, my question is do i go for a c and p or will they go with what the va doctor says?The regional rep said they put it on a fast claim thing, I should fill out some paper work and send back? On meds and have sessions they have scheduled me for months now.. Thanks for any input. quote name='Testvet' timestamp='1301885961' post='240636'] it sounds like your primary care doc is referring you to mental health and they will be the ones to determine if you have PTSD or not, it is not normally done in one visit I spent 4 months in the PTSD determination team taking tests and doing interviews with shrinks and PHDs and the resident did several of those computer type tests before they made the diagnosis of PTSD only then did I file the claim with the Regional office some will say file the claim and by the time the C&P gets scheduled you will have your diagnosis

Thanks so much, God Bless!

Thank you testvet! That helps me alot!

Oh, Yes this is the just my VA doctor and no I have not filed a claim. Currently I am sc for airborne injuries in military. I took this test on the myvet web site because of so much of the things I have dealt with for years and it referred me to contact my doctor for further eval. I never knew about this PTSD until the recent exposure of more vets coming out with problems from war. Gues Ill wait and see what my eval says, not sure about claim? Thank you!!

Hello, My VA doctor is scheduling me a ptsd psych evaluation soon, does anyone one know if this is I would be rated for ptsd if I have it during this eval?

Thank you so much for responding!!!

Ok..Thank you

Hello, I have 2 kids, both living with me going to college. Question is if my son decides to quit college and go into military do I report the month he moves out? Or if my daughter moves out also same question. And if there is an over payment do I send that back or how is that calculated.
